Silicon Knights open to new Eternal Darkness

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is a 2002 critically acclaimed Gamecube title from Silicon Knights. While the psychological horror game had (and still has) a large fan following, it wasn't a huge commercial blockbuster. Nevertheless, Silicon Knights boss Denis Dyack told GamesIndustry International this week that his studio is very open to the possibility of a sequel on next-gen consoles.

When we questioned him specifically on whether "it's too much to ask" for a new Eternal Darkness, he responded, "I don't think it is too much to ask. Certainly we love Eternal Darkness. It's a project that's near and dear to our hearts."

Dyack noted that the game is "requested a lot by a lot of people" but he also said that he simply can't comment on what the studio is working on right now. When we pressed Dyack on whether a new Eternal Darkness could indeed be what the studio is developing for next-gen, he once again hinted that "anything's possible."

It would certainly appear that Dyack is keen on revisiting the IP, and the current speculation, given his relationship with previous Nintendo platforms, is that Eternal Darkness could easily find a home on Wii U.

Stay tuned to GamesIndustry International for tons more in our full interview with Dyack.

Still one of my favorite games. If you haven't played the GC classic you should:

Go find a used copy on eBay or Gamestop (lulz) and play it!
Download Dolphin Emulator and find a copy of the game on PirateBay.

May your vengeance be swift and true!

On a side note, I'm thinking of streaming Eternal Darkness on my games channel soon.

Been wanting to play it for soo long but my Gamecube is at my parents house and I don't feel like fetching it....not when I can easily just download it and play it in HD through Dolphin...

Pretty much, unfortunately.

That's what worries me.

DS - have you never played Eternal Darkness before?

Drunken Savior · 03-25-2012, 09:17 PM

Yeah, I have it. Paid full price too! It was kind of the time when Silent Hill 2 came out so I was so enthralled with survival horror that I bought virtually all games that even hinted at being survival horror. Ultimately, ED was moreso a mindfucker than a horror game, but I loved it nontheless.

Also, to see a game so violent under Nintendo's guidance makes me smile. I just wanted to replay it.

Legendary game, but I trust them to make a good sequel about as much as I trust konami to make zoe3.

Sinful Sam · 03-26-2012, 05:17 AM

Most of the original team is probably gone, but I still like to see a sequel.

Escaflowne2001 · 03-26-2012, 05:24 AM

Would be nice but... I doubt it'll turn out well.
